Nice guide for the Mysterious Fortune Cards, but you don't go on to explain at all how Darkmoon Card of Destruction can make you money. You should expand that section to explain it.

Do you suggest just buying mats and selling the component cards? Or do you make the cards, trade them, and actually make and sell the trinkets?

Cheers.

Fist of all thanks! I will be adding a part for the Darkmoon cards of destruction soon. What i noticed was that some of the cards sold for 300 at the lowest and 1000 at the highest. It takes seven cards to make a set and the average price for the complete deck is 5,000. At the very least you would be making 2,100 gold which would not be a profit. However this whole thing is a gamble you could also make 7,000 in that case would be 2,000 more then selling the deck. Also you have to think that when you make the card it gives you a random one. So you could go through 50 cards before finishing a set. But if you sell them by themselves you wouldnt have to worry about that. I think it would be best to buy the mats and then sell the cards separately. Hope this helped, thanks for the feedback keep it coming!

Fairly simple guide.But it does work. Scribe + Herb ftw.

Ya it makes it a lot easier if you can herb it makes way more money. A good place to herb is Twilight Highlands especially in the bottom left corner of the zone around Bastion of Twilight. There seems to be a lot of Twilight Jasmine in that area.

I think you should amend your advice on the Darkmoon Cards.

You'll be very lucky to get more than a few hundred for each Darkmoon Card itself. The Trinkets do go for a few thousand each, so may make you more money if you trade for what you need to get complete sets. Did you actually do research on your server to see what the real prices are? You should at least put the two alternatives next to each other and say that for people who have patience and are willing to trade etc., then creating the trinkets might be better overall.

Cheers.

If you are also an Herb gatherer then it makes the profit a lot bigger!

I completely disagree with this sentence, as do almost all big money makers I speak to. Just because you did not spend money to get the herbs, does not mean they should be ignored from calculations. If you can buy 100 cinderbloom for 100g. Then by gathering 100 cinderbloom you have earned 100g. This is a completely separate act from crafting the cards. Now when you do the maths to figure out the profit on the cards you must subtract that 100g.

Think of it this way. You gather 100 of item x. This is worth 100g. You turn it into item y. This causes it to be worth 50g. According to your method turning it into item y is still profitable because x cost you nothing to get. This is obviously false though.

Any mats you gather must have a value in either gold and/or time associated with them.
